CID TT 2021 – 11/01/2021 Version 4 of 22This Book 1 is harmonised across all corridors. Also, this book 1 in particular, is common to
the corridors Rhine – Alpine, North Sea – Med, Atlantic and North Sea – Baltic. For ease of
understanding and in order to respect the particularities of some corridors, common
procedures are always written at the beginning of a chapter. The particularities of the Corridors
are placed below the common texts and marked as follows:
Corridor [Corridor Name] Specificities
The corridor-specific parts are displayed in this frame.
Glossary
A general glossary, which is harmonised over all RFCs, is available on the website of
RailNetEurope (RNE) under the following link:

1. Introduction
Regulation (EU) 913/2010 of 22 September 2010 concerning a European rail network for
competitive freight (hereinafter: Regulation) was published in the Official Journal of the
European Union on 20 October 2010 and entered into force on 9 November 2010.
The purpose of the Regulation is to create a competitive European rail network composed of
international freight corridors with a high level of performance. It addresses topics such as
governance, investment planning, capacity allocation, traffic management and quality of
service and introduces the concept of Corridor One-Stop-Shops. According to the Annex of
the Regulation, initially nine corridors were defined. In addition, Commission Decisions were
issued about the establishment of two additional corridors. The schematic overview of the
corridor network is displayed below.
CID TT 2021 – 11/01/2021 Version 5 of 22Corridor North Sea – Baltic On the 12th of October 2020 the RFC North Sea – Baltic has been extended to Riga and Tallinn, according to Regulation (EU) 913/2010. The modifications related to this Book 1 were published in January 2021 within the regular updating process of Book 1 for TT2022. The corridors commit to fulfil their intended role of increasing the competitiveness of international rail freight, unlocking the tremendous growth potential for long-distance freight traffic and promoting rail’s key role in a sustainable transport system. The improved marketability of the corridors is key to maintaining and winning over end-customers to the rail solution. In accordance with the Regulation, each corridor has set up a governance structure consisting of two levels: an Executive Board (composed of representatives of the ministries of the Member States) and a Management Board (composed of representatives of the Infrastructure Managers (IMs) and Allocation Bodies (ABs)). The corridors also set up two Advisory Groups (AGs): one consisting of representatives of terminal owners and managers, the other one consisting of representatives of Railway Undertakings (RUs). CID TT 2021 – 11/01/2021 Version 6 of 22
The corridors have designated or set up Corridor One-Stop-Shops (C-OSS) for allocating
certain types of international freight capacity (Pre-arranged Paths (PaPs) and Reserve
Capacity (RC)) on the corridor.
More details about the Corridor structure are described in Chapter 4 of this Book 1.
A corridor is a complex project that follows a new set of rules and procedures. For this reason,
the Corridor Information Document (CID) was created to provide all corridor-related
information and to guide all applicants and other interested parties through the workings of the
corridor in line with Article 18 of the Regulation. Together with RailNetEurpe (RNE), the
corridors have harmonised the structure and most of the texts to allow easier access to and
understanding of this information.
In order to achieve a stronger harmonisation of the corridors’ various implementation
approaches, RNE provides a coordination platform for the corridors to jointly develop
harmonised processes and tools, to the benefit of the applicants, as well as IMs and ABs that
are part of several corridors.
2. Structure of the CID
The CID applies the RNE CID Common Texts and Structure so that all applicants can access
similar documents for different corridors and in principle, as in the case of the national Network
Statements, find the same information in the same place in each one.
The CID is divided into five books to clarify the specificity and independence of the key content
of the document, and to facilitate the organisation and updating of information. The corridors,
together with RNE, developed harmonised texts for all corridors valid for Book 1, Book 2 and
Book 4.
The five books of the CID are as follows:
➢ Book 1: Generalities
The key purpose of Book 1 is to provide the reader with an introduction to the corridor
concept and an efficient guide to the consultation of CID information. Book 1 is the
only one not directly referred to in the Regulation.
➢ Book 2: Network Statement Excerpts
Book 2 gives an overview of all information published in the national NSs of the
IMs/ABs of the Corridor for the corresponding timetable year. These documents
follow an identical structure on the basis of the RNE NS Common Structure, allowing
for a set of links to the NSs concerned.
➢ Book 3: Terminal Description
CID TT 2021 – 11/01/2021 Version 7 of 22Book 3 provides information about the designated corridor terminals.
➢ Book 4: Procedures for Capacity and Traffic Management
Book 4 describes the procedures for capacity allocation by the C-OSS, planned
Temporary Capacity Restrictions, Traffic Management and Train Performance
Management. All conditions concerning applicants, the use of the C-OSS and its
products (PaPs and RC) and how to order them are explained here.
➢ Book 5: Implementation Plan
As specified in the Regulation, Book 5 covers the following topics:
➢ Description of the characteristics of the Corridor,
➢ Essential elements of the TMS,
➢ Objectives and performance of the Corridor,
➢ Indicative investment plan,
➢ Measures to implement Article 12 to 19 of the Regulation.
During the drafting of the Implementation Plan, the input of the stakeholders is taken
into account following a consultation phase. The Implementation Plan is approved by
the Executive Board of the Corridor before publication.
The CID is a single document and therefore all five books should be considered as integrated.
However, the five books may have different updating needs.
3. Corridor Description
The railway lines of the Corridor are divided into:
➢ Principal routes: on which PaPs are offered,
➢ Diversionary routes: on which PaPs may be considered temporarily in case of
disturbances, e.g. long-lasting major construction works on the principal lines,
➢ Connecting lines: lines connecting the corridor lines to a terminal (on which PaPs
may be offered but without an obligation to do so).
➢ Expected lines: Expected lines can be found in Chapter 2 of the Book 5.
The detailed description, including the type of corridor lines – as described above - can be
found in the Customer Information Platform (CIP).
CID TT 2021 – 11/01/2021 Version 8 of 224. Corridor Organisation
In accordance with Article 8 of the Regulation, the governance structure of the Corridor
assembles the following entities:

10. IT-Tools
All here described Corridors use the following common IT tools provided by RNE in order to
facilitate fast and easy access to the corridor infrastructure / capacity and corridor-related
information for the applicants.
10.1 Path Coordination System (PCS)
PCS is the single tool for publishing the binding PaP and RC offer and for managing
international path requests on the Corridor. The advantage of this solution is that the displayed
data for a PaP or RC may be used for creating a path request dossier – without any manual
copying. Furthermore, this method simplifies the presentation and management of the paths,
CID TT 2021 – 11/01/2021 Version 20 of 22which remain in the catalogue for allocation as ad-hoc paths during the running timetable period. Access to PCS is free of charge. A user account can be requested via the RNE PCS Support: support.pcs@rne.eu. More information can be found in Book 4 Chapter 2.5 of this CID and via http://pcs.rne.eu. 10.2 Train Information System (TIS) TIS is a web-based application that supports international train management by delivering real-time train data concerning international trains. The relevant data are obtained directly from the IMs' systems. The IMs send data to TIS, where all the information from the different IMs is combined into one train run from departure or origin to final destination. In this manner, a train can be monitored from start to end across borders. TIS also provides support to the Corridor Train Performance Management by providing information for punctuality, delay and quality analysis. All IMs, except Eurotunnel/Getlink (FR/UK), EVR (Estonia) and LDz (Latvia)., on the here described corridors participate in TIS. RUs and terminal operators may also be granted access to TIS by signing the TIS User Agreement with RNE. By signing this agreement, the TIS user agrees to RNE sharing train information with cooperating TIS users. The TIS user shall have access to the data relating to his/her own trains, as well as to the trains of other TIS users if cooperating in the same train run (i.e. data sharing by default). Access to TIS is free of charge. A user account can be requested via the RNE TIS Support: support.tis@rne.eu. For more information please visit the RNE TIS website: http://tis.rne.eu. 10.3 Charging Information System (CIS) The CIS is an infrastructure charging information system for applicants provided by IMs and ABs. The web-based application provides fast information on indicative charges related to the use of European rail infrastructure and estimates the price for the use of international train paths. It is an umbrella application for the various national rail infrastructure charging systems. The CIS also enables an RFC routing-based calculation of infrastructure charge estimates. It means that besides the conventional method, which is independent of RFC routing, the users can now define on which RFC(s) and which of their path segments they would like to make a query for a charge estimate. CID TT 2021 – 11/01/2021 Version 21 of 22
Access to CIS is free of charge without user registration. For more information please visit the RNE CIS website http://cis.rne.eu or contact the RNE CIS Support: support.cis@rne.eu. All IMs on the here described corridors participate in CIS, except EVR (Estonia) and LDz (Latvia). For charging information for these IMs, please turn to the IM concerned. 10.4 Customer Information Platform (CIP) The CIP is an interactive, internet-based information tool. Access to the CIP is free of charge and without user registration. For accessing the application, as well as for further information, use the following link: http://info-cip.rne.eu/ By means of a Graphical User Interface (GUI), CIP provides precise information on the routing, infrastructure investment project as well as information on terminals and basic track properties of the concerned corridors. It is being investigated to possibly include Temporary Capacity Restrictions (TCRs). All essential corridor-related information documents, such as this CID, capacity offer and TCRs are also accessible via the CIP. 11. Corridor Language The common working language on all described Corridors, as well as the original version of the CID, is English. In case of inconsistencies between the English and the translated version, if existent, the English version of the CID always prevails. Any deviations from the above will be indicated separately. The language used in operations is determined by national law. CID TT 2021 – 11/01/2021 Version 22 of 22
